Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a heating container apparatus for supplying heat to a heating container mounted on a vehicle to keep the contents of the heating container warm.
- One known heating container apparatus used on a vehicle for transporting foods or chemicals is disclosed in Japanese Laid-Open Utility Model Publication No. 58-13089. The foods or chemicals carried on the vehicle are heated or kept warm by the heat of the exhaust gas emitted from the engine of the vehicle. Another conventional heating container apparatus uses as a heat source the energy of the engine coolant.
- Some foods, which are required to be delivered early in the morning, should preferably be loaded on the vehicle in the night prior to delivery. However, where the exhaust gas or the engine coolant is utilised as the heat source, it would be quite difficult or almost impossible to heat the cargo or keep it warm for a long period of time throughout the night while the vehicle is at rest, because of the limited capacity of the battery, for example. Therefore, it has been customary in most cases to load the freight early in the morning just prior to transportation.
- In view of the aforesaid drawbacks of the conventional heating container apparatus, it is an object of the present invention to provide a heating container apparatus for keeping the interior of a heating container at a desired temperature by operating a control device with electric power from a power supply other than the vehicle-mounted power supply, when the vehicle is at rest for a long period of time.
- According to the invention there is provided an automotive heating container apparatus for supplying heat to a heating container mounted on a vehicle to keep the contents of the heating container warm, characterised by a burner for igniting fuel; an atomizer for atomizing fuel to be supplied to the burner; a first air blower device for supplying air to the burner; a second air blower device for introducing air into the heating container; a heat exchanger for recovering heat generated by the burner to heat air to be introduced into the heating container; a control device for controlling the air to be introduced into the heating container based on a temperature signal from a container temperature sensor disposed in the heating container; and voltage control means for controlling the voltage of a power supply other than a vehicle-mounted power supply to that the voltage of the other power supply can be selected to be equal to a given voltage of the vehicle-mounted power supply, and for operating the control device with electric power from the other power supply when the engine of the vehicle is stopped.
- Hence, while the vehicle engine is running, electric power from the vehicle-mounted power supply is employed, and while the vehicle is at rest for an appreciable period of time, electric power from a commercial power supply is employed. The interior of the heating container can be kept at a suitable temperature at all times by the electric power supply thus provided.
- As described above, during stoppage of the automobile for an appreciable time interval, electric power is supplied from a commercial power supply available at home, rather than from the vehicle battery, to keep the interior of the heating container at the desired temperature. Therefore, foods or the like can be loaded on the vehicle in the previous night, and can be delivered early in the next morning immediately without any loading operation.
- An embodiment of the invention will now be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which
- Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a burner device for use with an automotive heating container according to the present invention; and
- Fig. 2 is a flowchart of an operation sequence of temperature control for the automotive heating container.
- Fig. 1 shows a power supply which can be used in place of a vehicle-mounted
battery 21 when the engine of an automobile is stopped. Thepower supply 30 is supplied with AC power at, say, 100V via a plug 1 to produce DC power at 24V or 12V equal to the vehicle battery voltage, the DC power at 24V or 12V being supplied viawires 3 and a controller 11 to an atomizing glow plug 18, anignition glow plug 13, afirst blower 15, asecond blower 16, and afuel pump 17. Thepower supply 30 comprises athyristor 2, a diode 4, aresistor 5, a zener diode 6, a unijunction transistor 7, aprotective circuit 8 for protecting thethyristor 2 from excessive voltage, a resistor 9, and acapacitor 10. Thethyristor 2 serves to rectify the AC power only when a positive voltage is applied to its gate. The diode 4 and theresistor 5 apply a rectified positive voltage to the cathode of the zener diode 6, which keeps the voltage thereacross (anode-to-cathode voltage) in a voltage range from 10V to 20V. The unijunction transistor 7, the resistor 9, and thecapacitor 10 jointly constitute a charging/discharging circuit which, on discharge, applies a positive voltage to the gate of thethyristor 2 to render the thyristor conductive. The time of one cycle of the charging/discharging circuit is established by appropriately selecting the time constant of the resistor 9 and thecapacitor 10. Therefore, thepower supply 30 can produce a voltage equal to the 24V or 12V voltage of thebattery 21 by selecting the breakdown voltage of the zener diode 6 and the time constant of the resistor 9 and thecapacitor 10. The controller 11 is in the form of an electronic control device which is programmed according to an operation sequence (described later) for controlling the atomizing glow plug, the ignition glow plug, the first and second blowers, and the fuel pump. Aburner 14 has anatomizer 12 for atomizing fuel supplied from thefuel pump 17 by heating the fuel with the atomizing glow plug 18, and theignition glow plug 13 for igniting a mixture of the fuel atomized by theatomizer 12 and the air introduced by thefirst blower 15. The combustion gas produced by theburner 14 is discharged through aheat exchanger 23 into the atmosphere. Thesecond blower 16 draws in air and supplies that air to theheat exchanger 23, from which hot air is delivered into aheating container 20. Acontainer temperature sensor 19 senses the temperature in theheating container 20. Fig. 1 also shows abattery 21, achangeover switch 22 and acombustion sensor 24. - Temperature control for the automotive heating container will now be described with reference to the flowchart of Fig. 2.
- In order to operate the
heating container 20 when the engine is stopped thechangeover switch 22 is actuated to select thepower supply 30, and the plug 1 is connected to a socket for receiving AC power from the 100V supply. The temperature TR in theheating container 20 is measured by thecontainer temperature sensor 19. A step a ascertains whether the temperature TR is lower than an upper limit such as 20°C. If yes, then theignition glow plug 13 is turned on in a step b, which is followed by a step c which checks whether or not theignition glow plug 13 is operating normally. If theignition glow plug 13 is operating normally, then control proceeds to a step d in which a fuel switch (not shown) is turned on, and then to a step e in which the atomizing glow plug 18 is turned on. A next step f ascertains whether the atomizing glow plug 18 is operating normally or not. If it is operating normally, then the first andsecond blowers combustion sensor 24 is turned on 30 seconds later, and whether combustion is normal or not is ascertained in a step i. If it is not normal in each of the steps c, f and i, control goes to a step l in which a failure buzzer (not shown) is energized. - A step j then ascertains whether the container temperature TR is higher than a lower limit such as 10°C. If yes, then heating of the container is continued for a time t₁ in a step k.
- If the container temperature TR is lower than the lower limit, then control goes to a step o which brings the fuel switch into a second position to increase the amount of fuel supplied. Thereafter, the first and
second blowers - If the container temperature TR is higher than the upper limit of 20°C, then control goes to a step m in which operation of the heating container is stopped. The step m is followed by a step n which keeps the heating container inoperative for a time t₂.
- With the arrangement of the present invention, as described above, while the automobile is being held at rest for a long period of time, electric power is supplied not from the automobile-mounted battery, but from a commercial power supply available at home, for keeping the automotive heating container in a desired temperature range. Therefore, a cargo such as foods can be loaded in the previous night, kept at a desired temperature through the night, and delivered early in the next morning without any loading operation required.
- While in the above embodiment a thyristor phase control circuit is employed as the
power supply 30, another constant-voltage power supply employing a transformer and rectifier circuit,or a thyristor rectifier, capable of producing DC power at 24V or 12V from a 100V AC power supply may be employed instead of the illustrated power supply. Clearly the AC power supply may alternatively be 220V or 240V, or any other available AC supply voltage.
